About AIESEC
Present in over 1700 universities in more than 107 countries and territories, AIESEC, the world's largest youth organization, is the international platform for young people to explore and develop their potential so as to have a positive impact in society.
Towards this aim, we run more than 470 conferences, provide 5,500 work abroad opportunities, and offer over 7,500 leadership positions to our members each year. Together with a focus on building personal networks and exploring the direction and ambition of their future, AIESEC has an innovative approach to engaging and developing young people.
Our partner organizations, literally thousands from all sectors, look at AIESEC as a way to support the development of young people and to have access to high-potential young talent from around the world.
Our alumni are leaders within these organizations and their communities - using the experience, skills, and increased vision that AIESEC gave them to be agents of positive change.
The AIESEC Way
Many organizations are working to make a positive impact in our society, as we do. Each one of them has its own approach. We also have our unique way to make that impact... The AIESEC Way!
The AIESEC Way is not only a description of the way (manner) we aim to make a positive impact on society, but also describes the way (road) we are taking to achieve what we envision.
